Energy Audit for Reducing Wastage of Energy

In the age of energy conservation and green living, it has become an important activity for the small
business to have an energy audit conducted on their premises. It helps the company to save money
by saving energy cost which building generates. With the help of professional audit, Small businesses
can save money by reducing wasting of energy at all levels.

Energy audit companies can conserve energy for a better future perspective. It helps companies to
reduce the Input energy without affecting the output negatively; it helps in reducing the carbon
footprint on the environment.

There are certain objectives of Energy Audit which is based on conserving overall energy program
analysis and evaluation of conservation measures which aims at given below:

 The present pattern of energy consumption can be assessed

 Energy inputs and production output how it relates to each other
 The economy of thermal and electrical energy identifying the potential areas
 Major areas wastage can be highlighted
 Individual cost centres targets have been fixed of energy-saving potential
 Measures of energy conservation implementation

The Objectives of Energy Audit are achieved by the following:

 No Investment or marginal Investment required once the scope of Improvement and

formulation of energy to be identified it can be done either through optimization of
operations and system improvement.
 Incorporation of modern energy-efficient equipment or existing equipment up-gradation
once the area has been identified where major investment is required.

Energy Auditor and their role

An energy auditor is the one who suggests solutions on how to save money by upgrading the system
which is needed. They are the one who suggest right infrastructure so that doors and windows are
properly insulated and also suggest to conserve water by inspecting the faucets and pipes for leaks
and repairing or installing new spouts which can reduce the wasting water each day. Solar energy
the best option these days which auditors may suggest companies install a solar system and other
forms to save energy efficiently and cost-effectively and make the building as energy-efficient as
possible.

The auditors need to perform the Inspection at company building or sites. Energy auditors must
have access to proper tools that are needed to make proper judgments about energy efficiency
being properly utilized or not. Auditors must have extensive knowledge about energy certification
and to consider green building what all other standards are required.

In the long run, energy conservation saves money. The cost incurred on Energy Audit can be paid
back in manifold once the improvement has been made suggested by the auditors. It saves the
utility bills and also in case of the solar system installed in the building then business owners can
avail feed-in tariff benefit also.

This audit benefits for economic and environmental betterment. Energy audit plays a crucial role in
the energy sector. Most of the time businesses focus on big things to save money and ignore the
small areas where when it can be taken care of they not only save money but also contribute more
to other aspects of businesses. The main goal is to understand within a system how energy is being
used within the system and where it is wasted. Corrective measures to be taken to reduce energy
losses.
